Bush's Veto Strategy
http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/article/2007/06/17/AR2007061700942.html
By Robert D. Novak
Monday, June 18, 2007; Page A17
Addressing a Republican fundraising dinner at the Washington
Convention Center on Wednesday night, President Bush declared: "If the
Democrats want to test us, that's why they give the president the
veto. I'm looking forward to vetoing excessive spending, and I'm
looking forward to having the United States Congress support my veto."
That was more than blather for a political pep rally. Bush plans to
veto the homeland security appropriations bill nearing final passage,
followed by vetoes of eight more money bills sent him by the
Democratic-controlled Congress.
That constitutes a veto onslaught of historic proportions from a
president who did not reject a single bill during his first term. Of
the 12 appropriations bills for fiscal 2008, only three will be signed
by the president in the form shaped by the House. What's more, Bush
correctly claimed that he has the House votes needed to sustain these
vetoes. The unpopular president is taking the offensive on fiscal
responsibility. After bowing to Republican demands on earmarks,
Democratic leaders face a battle of the budget.
Redefining the U.S. Role in Iraq
http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/article/2007/06/17/AR2007061700943.html

Monday, June 18, 2007; Page A17
Dear Mr. President,
As you know from my public statements, I have supported your increase
in troops in Iraq in the belief that a new initiative was necessary to
bring the Iraq war to a successful conclusion. It has been my position
that this troop increase should be given an opportunity to work.
Increasingly, however, reports show that attacks on our troops, Iraqi
police and civilians are not abating.
Kremlin Anxiety

Despite a Popular Leader, Global Influence and a Booming Economy, The
State Marshals All Its Weapons Against Those Perceived as Enemies
By Fred Hiatt
Monday, June 18, 2007; Page A17
If Russia is back, why does the Kremlin still seem so insecure?
The economy has steadily grown. President Vladimir Putin remains
immensely popular, we are told, and the nation's influence abroad has
been restored.
Abusing The Secrets Shield

In 1953 the widows of three civilian contractors killed when the
military aircraft on which they were testing equipment crashed sought
government documents to support their claim of negligence. The Air
Force refused to produce the accident report, even for private review
by the judge, asserting the "state secrets privilege" to withhold
evidence that would jeopardize national security. The trial court
ruled in favor of the widows, but the Supreme Court sided with the
government and blocked review of the documents.
The Reynolds decision, as that case came to be known, set a precedent
establishing the executive branch's ability to restrict, in the name
of national security, what evidence can be considered at trial. As
veterans of the fight against domestic and international terrorism
since before that war had a name, we appreciate the need to keep
sensitive national security information from the public eye for
reasonable periods of time to protect ongoing operations. However, the
executive branch should not be allowed to extend that shield to hide
evidence that is "sensitive" simply because it is embarrassing or,
worse, demonstrates wrongdoing.

bill making it harder for someone who is dangerously mentally ill to

Coal-to-Liquid Boondoggle
http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/article/2007/06/17/AR2007061700945.html
A risky solution to America's energy woes
Monday, June 18, 2007; Page A16
COAL-TO-LIQUID fuel is being touted in the Senate energy debate as a
key to overcoming America's dependence on foreign fuel. The argument
is understandable, considering that the United States sits atop the
largest coal reserves in the world, by one estimate a 200- to 450-year
supply. But unanswered questions and environmental concerns raise the
prospect that the price for this brand of energy independence may be
too high.

At Walter Reed, Care for Soldiers Struggling With War's Mental Trauma
Is Undermined by Doctor Shortages and Unfocused Methods
By Anne Hull and Dana Priest
Washington Post Staff Writers
Monday, June 18, 2007; A01
On the military plane that crossed the ocean at night, the wounded lay
in stretchers stacked three high. The drone of engines was broken by
the occasional sound of moaning. Sedated and sleeping, Pfc. Joshua
Calloway was at the top of one stack last September. Unlike the others
around him, Calloway was handcuffed to his stretcher.
When the 20-year-old infantry soldier woke up, he was on the locked-
down psychiatric ward at Walter Reed Army Medical Center. A nurse
handed him pajamas and a robe, but they reminded him of the flowing
clothes worn by Iraqi men. He told the nurse, "I don't want to look
like a freakin' Haj." He wanted his uniform. Request denied. Shoelaces
and belts were prohibited.

Palestinian Leader Meets Resistance From Rival Hamas
By Scott Wilson
Washington Post Foreign Service
Monday, June 18, 2007; A01
JERUSALEM, June 17 -- Palestinian Authority President Mahmoud Abbas
swore in an emergency cabinet Sunday and officially outlawed the armed
wing and paramilitary security branch of the Hamas movement, saying it
had carried out a "military coup against the Palestinian legitimacy
and its government."
Hamas officials immediately condemned the move as illegal, further
deepening the divide between what had been envisioned as the future
parts of a Palestinian state. The United States and other foreign
donors supported Abbas's decision on the eve of the Israeli prime
minister's visit to Washington to discuss how best to engage the
Palestinians.
T-Shirt Maker's Style, Drawn From Web Users

More Firms Parcel Out Tasks Via Internet
By Alan Sipress
Washington Post Staff Writer
Monday, June 18, 2007; A01
The two teenagers were short of nearly everything when they kick-
started their Chicago T-shirt business seven years ago. Jake Nickell
and Jacob DeHart each chipped in $500. They ran it out of Nickell's
apartment since DeHart still lived with his mother. For shipping, they
enlisted friends to carry the shirts to the post office.
But they had a killer design team: the Web. They solicited designs
from thousands of Internet users and then had them vote on which to
manufacture. Outsourcing design work to the Web's mass audience has
built the company, now called Threadless, into one of the country's
hottest T-shirt retailers, with estimated annual revenue of about $15
million.

Congress Seeks New Direction for Nuclear Strategy

By Walter Pincus
Washington Post Staff Writer
Monday, June 18, 2007; Page A02
Congress is moving to change the direction of the Bush
administration's nuclear weapons program by demanding the development
of a comprehensive post-Sept. 11, 2001, nuclear strategy before it
approves funding a new generation of warheads.
"Currently there exists no convincing rationale for maintaining the
large number of existing Cold War nuclear weapons, much less producing
additional warheads," the House Appropriations Committee said in its
report, released last week, on the fiscal 2008 Energy and Water
Development Appropriations Bill. The full House is expected to vote on
the measure this week.

LAS VEGAS -- Gov. Bill Richardson has found a second home in Nevada.
The two-hour flight is not a short hop from the New Mexico governor's
mansion in Santa Fe, but Richardson hopes Nevada will become a

"You're now important," he told a group of Las Vegas Democrats last

ISLAMABAD, Pakistan, June 18 -- Since winter, the Taliban had been
promising a spring offensive. It didn't come. Instead, NATO and U.S.
forces have pounded the group's positions and killed its senior
leadership.
But with summer well underway in Afghanistan, the radical Islamic
movement showed on Sunday that it is still capable of mounting one of
the most devastating insurgent strikes the country has seen.

Gains by Socialists Defy Predictions For French Runoff
By Molly Moore

Monday, June 18, 2007; Page A10
PARIS, June 17 -- French President Nicolas Sarkozy's ruling party won
a majority in parliamentary runoff elections Sunday, but Socialists --
contrary to all poll predictions -- gained more seats than they had
held in the previous assembly, foreshadowing tough battles ahead for
the new government's proposals.
Leftist candidates appeared to be boosted by public fears about
Sarkozy's reform efforts, including an announcement last week of a
plan to raise sales taxes, and by a low turnout of Sarkozy voters
anticipating a runaway sweep of the National Assembly.

Conditions in Iraq will not improve sufficiently by September to
justify a drawdown of U.S. military forces, the top commander in Iraq
said yesterday.
Asked whether he thought the job assigned to an additional 30,000
troops deployed as the centerpiece of President Bush's new war
strategy would be completed by then, Gen. David H. Petraeus replied:
"I do not, no. I think that we have a lot of heavy lifting to do."

BAGHDAD, July 17 -- Shiite and Kurdish officials expressed deep
reservations on Sunday about the new U.S. military strategy of
partnering with Sunni Arab groups to help defeat the militant
organization al-Qaeda in Iraq.
"They are trusting terrorists," said Ali al-Adeeb, a prominent Shiite
lawmaker who was among many to question the loyalty of the Sunni
groups. "They are trusting people who have previously attacked
American forces and innocent people. They are trusting people who are
loyal to the regime of Saddam Hussein."

RAFAH, Egypt, June 17 -- All but sealed off by Egypt and Israel, Gaza
presented an intensifying security concern to its neighbors and a fast-
approaching humanitarian crisis Sunday, three days after its takeover
by Hamas.
Palestinian boys spilled over the rusted metal fence at Gaza's
unguarded border to fly kites in the no man's land between Gaza and
Egypt. Palestinian security forces, dominated by the Fatah movement,
fled their border posts last week in the course of their rout by Hamas
fighters.

Friend and foe alike have long grumbled that President Bush should
shed some of the Texas insiders on his staff and assemble a more
diverse team willing to confront him with competing ideas and bad
news. Now it seems the president is doing just that, but at a stage
when his low popularity ratings and dwindling time left in office
threaten to diminish his presidential clout as never before.
"Having an A Team is better late than never," lobbyist and White House
pal Ed Rogers told our colleague Michael Abramowitz.
